John Brown and Jirka Kosek both had good suggestions to split the case
study into individual pages using pdftk and then use mediaobject.
This approach seems to work pretty well, although the generated index
entries don't seem to point to the same page where the image is rendered
(pretty close, though).
Here's what I came up with...
<chapter>
<title>Case Study</title>
<mediaobject>
<objectinfo><indexterm><primary>TEST</primary></indexterm></objectinfo>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="casestudy_001.pdf" scalefit="1"
width="100%" contentdepth="100%" format="PDF"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para/>
<mediaobject>
<objectinfo><indexterm><primary>TEST2</primary></indexterm></objectinfo>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="casestudy_002.pdf" scalefit="1"
width="100%" contentdepth="100%" format="PDF"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para/>
<mediaobject>
<objectinfo><indexterm><primary>TEST3</primary></indexterm></objectinfo>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="casestudy_003.pdf" scalefit="1"
width="100%" contentdepth="100%" format="PDF"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para/>
<mediaobject>
<objectinfo><indexterm><primary>TEST</primary></indexterm></objectinfo>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="casestudy_004.pdf" scalefit="1"
width="100%" contentdepth="100%" format="PDF"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
</chapter>
The biggest problem I'm having now is that the image doesn't appear to
scale the entire width of the page. I'm using XEP, but FOP 0.95 does the
same (or worse).
What am I missing? I've tried width="100%" but that also errors. I've
also tried setting the default.image.width param, but that doesn't seem
to work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks and best regards,

Folks,
I have a situation where I need to include a set of preformatted PDF in my
DocBook book (e.g., a case study). What is the best method to integrate
this? I tried the mediaobject route, but that only gives me the first page.
What processor? I think you'd have to do this in an extension, but
looking at the AntennaHouse manual seems to indicate they've got a
workaround (PDF Output, PDF Embedding section)....
HTH,
Keith
